The Costume Shop

Written by DanaNPhotography on . Posted in Blog, Theater, Uncategorized.

I am so fortunate to have a studio located in a historic theatre in a thriving downtown!  I am amazed daily at the creativity The Henegar Center for the Arts produces in all aspects of it’s productions.  The costume shop is no exception.  Did you know that the summer program’s costumes are all hand made right here??! Under the stage where the costume shop is located, our summer Costumer Shannon Reppert, volunteers and interns are sewing, measuring, painting, cutting out and batiking for this summer’s middle school production of “The Lion King Experience”.  It was amazing to witness the thought and hard work that went into every costume with each child in mind.  Here is a short video I put together showing a very small part of the costuming machine!  “The Lion King Experience” opens on the Henegar main stage Friday, July 14th at 7pm and Saturday, July 15 at 2pm and 7pm.  Purchase your tickets at the box office at 625 E. New Haven Ave. or on line HERE. Get out of the summer heat and bring your family!  We can’t wait to see you! HACUNA MATATA!

As the resident photographer for The Henegar Center Theatre in downtown Melbourne, it is so great to see elementary school age kids loving theatre!  Maureen Fallon recently directed The Jungle Book when she was asked to bring theatre to the beachside elementary!  The response was incredible!  Students from West Shore Jr. Sr. High School Theatre Troupe #6034 assisted Ms. Fallon in choreography, hair and makeup, lighting and technical support.  The auditorium was sold out and the crown was awesome!  Maureen will be directing the Henegar Center’s  children’s summer theatre .  It’s an incredible experience for kids and the shows are so fun!

Here is a link for the photos from Gemini elementary Theatre Club’s performance of The Jungle Book!

Joey

Not a bad combo for new to the stage lead actor, Joey Paris in the Henegar Center’s premiere production of Broadway’s reworked “Cry Baby the Musical”!  Ladies, did I mention he was a fire fighter? That alone has milage in my circles 😉  But seriously, the show is really fun and a perfect night out after dinner in downtown Melbourne.  The actors and actresses are talented and give it all they’ve got. They were the best to photograph!  So passionate and dedicated to their roles.  You won’t be disappointed. The lighting is amazing and the set, props and costuming were a blast for a photographer to capture.  For the theatre people…check out Cry Baby’s prisoner number.   Take photos with the cast after the show!  They may even sing and dance with you in the lobby-I love that too…and Latte’s with heart foam.

 

 

 

 

Gala for Henegar Center and Candlelighters of Brevard–Photobooth Time!

Viking helmets, springing googley eyes, hatchets and boxing gloves!  What more do you want in a Photo Booth at the 1st annual Gala benefiting The Henegar Center for the Arts and Candlelighters of Brevard.  It is a double bonus– as far as prop availability goes–that I am the Henegar’s resident photographer!  So I went shopping in our prop and dressing room and came up with some fun things for the guests to use in their unconventional Gala photos!  Some opted for both the fun and the formal shot and that is just twice the fun!  The Addams Family cast even dropped in for a few shots with our guests! We had a fantastic time!  I love photo booths and offer it for events!

Here is a sneak peak of some of the fun!!

Addams Family cast and fun at the Studio

This is reason #452 why having a studio at a theatre is The Best. I get to know actors and actresses in the community who donate their time to benefit The Arts. They work all day and then come straight from work and spend several more hours running lines and blocking scenes. Oh, and doing this…A SloMo photo booth (available for events and weddings…how incredibly FUN!)
PS Come see “Addams Family: The Musical” October 17-November 2, 2014. Reserve your tickets Here
